There's getting to be alot of us that are having work done/ getting tuned by Fred at SMG Motoring. I've met alot of you already but I'm sure there's alot more out there. Well I think it's time we have our own thread to keep track of what ever one is doing with their cars. Post up your car, what mods you have done, what mods were done at SMG, your dyno numbers, if you've taken your car to the drag-strip your best time, and any future plans you have. I'll start

PLEASE KEEP THIS THREAD AS SMG MOTORING CUSTOMERS ONLY. THE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK FOUND ELSEWHERE ON THIS SITE WILL NOT BE TOLERATED IN HERE.

 

Those are conservative numbers running Meth...With all stock parts and a flash I ran 13.3 @ 108 (didn't dyno it yet, so i cant compare there) But Ive seen people with just flashes make that power. So Im a lil confused on the meth kit.

 

I'd like to keep this thread to SMG Motoring customers only. Thank you. I appreciate the feedback but others on this site are not always positive with theirs. Which is why I opened up this thread.

 

Fred typically will tune on the safer size rather than for bragging rights with power and whatnot. if you want an aggressive tune i'm sure he'll help you out. in my case, i wanted something that was safe and wouldn't possibly kill the car in 2 or 3 years. heh.

i've got an '06 ss/sc. all my mods are in my sig. should have the ottp intake today, which i hope to get on my car today. power was 258hp/236tq. haven't been to the track yet.

Fred did my tune, installed the pulley, injectors, plugs (1 step colder), dual pass, heat exchanger, and stage 2 mounts. i've been very happy with everything thus far.

Hey Glenn were you able to get an inspection sticker for your car yet?

 

not yet, we reflashes it today, freds gonna keep it when i go to california next week, he said he'd just get me one then

 

Fred needs to learn how to answer his phone...

 

maybe he just doesnt want to talk to you.

 

x2...

 

Damn if he doesn't wanna talk to me then he shouldn't take orders for parts and leave me hanging for 3 weeks.

 

wat did you order? any leads on selling the car?

 

Meth activation switch. I stopped by around 930 this morning. I figured since he seemed so busy he would be there. But, he wasn't so I left a note LOL.

No, no one is going to buy the car so I'm going to keep building it. I got a second head and I am going to get some internals. Then I'll build a turbo manifold and get a 30R this winter. 400WHP reliably is my goal

 

just turn the boost up in your car, arent you only at like 18psi?

 

hahaha that car is soo sick... maxim you gonna be up on the 29th jared is trying to get some people to go

 

No, I'm well past that when I race. But, the turbo I have is small and inefficient at high boost. I need a bigger one to maintain higher power levels more safely.

I have some Nitrous that I am going to run next time I go to the track though. That should make up for it.

No I'm working Monday through the weekend till next Friday. I'd like to make it up the weekend after next and take my spot @ the top again on the list.

 

id like you to drive my car to the top spot
